The Twelve Data MCP Server provides a seamless integration with the Twelve Data API to access financial market data. It enables retrieval of historical time series, real-time quotes, and instrument metadata for stocks, forex pairs, and cryptocurrencies.

Note: This server is currently in early-stage development; features and tools may evolve alongside updates to the Twelve Data API.

To use Twelve Data MCP Server, you must first obtain an API key from Twelve Data:

2. Create an account or log in if you already have one.
3. Navigate to your Dashboard and copy your API key.

Important: Access to specific endpoints or markets may vary depending on your Twelve Data subscription plan.

u-tool is an AI-powered universal router for the Twelve Data API that transforms how you access financial data. Instead of navigating 100+ individual endpoints and complex documentation, simply describe what you need in plain English.

How it works: 🧠 Natural Language Processing: Understands your request in conversational English 🔍 Smart Routing: Uses vector search to find the most relevant endpoints from Twelve Data's entire API catalog 🎯 Intelligent Selection: Leverages OpenAI GPT-4o to choose the optimal method and generate correct parameters ⚡ Automatic Execution: Calls the appropriate endpoint and returns formatted results

What you can ask: 📈 "Show me Apple stock performance this week" 📊 "Calculate RSI for Bitcoin with 14-day period" 💰 "Get Tesla's financial ratios and balance sheet" 🌍 "Compare EUR/USD exchange rates over 6 months" 🏦 "Find top-performing tech ETFs"

Supported data categories:

• Market data & quotes • Technical indicators (100+)
